Hi all, I've seen other mentions of this happening but this instance is
with a newer server version than the ones that had a patch applied.

Basically, 8 LEFT JOINs, and removing any one of them stop the symptom.
I'll provide more data if the query in itself doesn't not indicate
what's causing the problem...
